<p><blockquote>But the new great game is <strong>not the war for oil pipelines. It is the war for information pipelines</strong>: the control over fibre-optic cable paths that spread undersea and overland. <strong>The new global treasure is control over the giant data flows</strong> that connect whole continents and civlisations, linking the communications of billions of people and organisations.</blockquote></p>
<p class="quote-source">— <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/jul/09/cryptography-weapon-fight-empire-states-julian-assange">Julian Assange in The Guardian, 9 July 2013</a></p>
<!-- I'd like to open with this quote taken from a recent column by Julian Assange in the Guardian. I disagree with his emphasis on the data pipelines at the expense of the data itself, but the analogy with oil is an interesting one. -->

<!-- For example, both data and oil can require significant investments in discovery, extraction and refinement. You only have to look at the amount invested by large corporations in data warehousing infrastructure to see evidence of that. But the comparison has limitations. And data is not oil. -->

<h2>Data is not Oil</h2>
<ul class="centred-list">
<li><strong>data is a non-rival good</strong></li>
<li><strong>open data guarantees access</strong></li>
</ul>
<!-- for example, data is a non-rival good, which means that you consuming a piece of data doesn't prevent me doing the same. This is hugely important in that it doesn't so readily concentrate power in the hands of those with rights to the data. Moreover, open data actually provides a legal framework that guarantees access for everyone. -->
</section>
<section>
<h2>Opportunities</h2>
<ul class="centred-list">
<li><strong>data for everyone!</strong></li>
<li><strong>wealth and social opportunity for everyone!</strong></li>
<li><strong>solutions to huge global challenges?</strong></li>
</ul>
<!-- the availability of data for everyone is not just a morally desirable outcome, it can actually create wealth and social opportunity for everyone. it may also provide the key to finding solutions for massive global challenges such as climate change or food supply. -->
</section>
<section>
<h2>Challenges</h2>
<ul class="centred-list">
<li><strong>standards</strong><br/>open data certificates</li>
<li><strong>catalysing innovative usage of open data</strong><br/>closing the impact loop</li>
<li><strong>skills</strong><br/>education education education</li>
</ul>
<!-- but naturally it comes with challenges, and I've been asked to speak to three of these. -->

<h2>Questions</h2>
<ul class="centred-list">
<li><strong>what's the lifespan of your drilling rig?</strong></li>
<li><strong>drilling engineers vs. drilling rigs</strong></li>
